It's a little crazy looking, but I can see it being a great compromise between the minimalism of a Steinberger-type bass and the ergonomics of a more traditional body shape. I bet it's a hell of a player.

I've seen one other. Arni (Leftybass.com) owns one too. Though looking at his current collection, I no longer see it. I wonder if this is the same one he owns or used to own?

Considering how rare, and how Cool this bass looks, I'd say 750 Euros sounds like a great price...

The description says it is a prototype, and that this model was never released by Ibanez. No case or bag and he's not willing to ship.
Which is fine because
a) I don't live in France and
b) I don't (nor ever had) a mullet :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yes, I'm pretty sure this must be the only one in existance. If I could spare the money, I would love to own it. I really have a thing for old Ibanez instruments, and would love to start a collection, but I should really be saving and I'm already very poor at that :P
